I drank the same amounts during the week while working and 2-3 more added to the mix after I lost my job and didnt really suffer huge withdrawals either. Didn't matter though, the problem was EVERYTHING else that it caused to go wrong, which was pretty much everything that could go wrong, went wrong. Now I am in the hole and have to claw my way out of it thanks to those thousands of Heineken tall cans.
This is going to take a lot of time, focus and dedication to correct and I know that if I ever open another beer it'll all come crashing down again. That I wont be able to deal with, so good riddance to alcohol.
